According to a police report, the gunman showed up at 12:55 a.m. at Monte's Pub, 5700 N. Orange Blossom Trail. He ordered Warnock and other customers to the floor, but Warnock made some kind of gesture and was shot.

The suspect ordered a bar worker to fill a duffle bag with cash and fled. He was described as white, 20 to 25 years old, 5-foot-10 and 175 pounds. He had a thin build and was wearing a blue or black bandana, a teal shirt and dark shoes.
